Summary
Five million Mexican-born farm workers are employed on North American farms sometime during a typical year. Almost all of these workers were raised in poverty in rural Mexico, and in North America they can earn at least ten times more than they would earn in Mexico. This book explores the impacts of Mexican migrant workers in Canada, Mexico and the US
